Uni Choices: International Law or Relations?????????? help

Personally, I think it would be best to do IR and a language (which many unis offer). This way you still have the option to go to law school after the fact and it doesn't close all the doors for you. I also want to be a diplomat and from what I saw you definitely need a language but when considering IR or IL it really comes down to what you feel you will enjoy the most. Neither of them will stop you from getting a job if you don't choose them so one really isn't better than the other.

Then again, law is a more prestigious degree but if you don't enjoy law, you are unlikely to do as well.

Thank you! How about Law with International Relations? This way I could get a Bachelor of Laws, and also learn about IR? And then I suppose languages could be self-studied?

Of course, if you feel like that is what you'd enjoy. Have a look at prospective unis and see with the workload is for Law and IR because it'll definitely be a lot! Loads of unis have societies for languages so there's plenty of opportunities for you to lean a language in your own time. A BoL is always going to be a great choice for a subject and the broader your knowledge the more you'll stand out.

I'd probably guess that it'll be a lot of work but you sound like you're passionate about it so it shouldn't be a problem. I'm studying IR and Spanish next year and I can say that doing two subjects is going to be harder than just one subject.

If you have anymore questions about this I'm happy to help!
